***What the liberal media won't show you***

A recent report by CNN features a deceptively edited clip of Sherelle Smith — sister to Sylville Smith, the armed man shot by Milwaukee Police — making it look as if she was calling for peace on the streets in her neighborhood.

 

But a closer look at all her comments — most of which were edited out by CNN — reveals that rather than merely calling for an end to the destruction in her own neighborhood, she also ordered rioters to take their violence and destruction to the suburbs.

 

Titling its report “Residents try to heal,” CNN slipped in a few seconds of the words uttered by Sherelle Smith, a sister of the 23-year-old black man shot by an African American Milwaukee Police officer on Saturday. The young woman’s edited comments make it seem as if she was calling for peace, Newsbusters noted.

 

In the clip CNN tells its audience, “Smith’s sister Sherelle Smith condemned the violence, saying the community needs the businesses affected.”

 

Then CNN cuts to Smith who is seen saying, “Don’t bring that violence here.”

It would have been a wonderful thing if Miss Smith were calling for a complete end to the violence. But what she actually said was something far different. Here are her comments in full:

 

Burnin down sh*t ain’t going to help nothin! Y’all burnin’ down sh*t we need in our community. Take that sh*t to the suburbs. Burn that sh*t down! We need our sh*t! We need our weaves. I don’t wear it. But we need it.

 

In other words, she was not just calling for an end to the violence in her own neighborhood. She was also calling for that same violence to be transferred to the suburbs

During the unrest Sunday night, a recent Brookfield Central High School graduate was hit by gunfire. He is recovering, but the bullet is still lodged in his neck.

Unfortunately no one is in custody for the shooting. No one in the mainstream media has reported about this racist incident where this white boy was targeted, shot and nearly killed just for being white. If the races would have been reversed... imagine the outcome.

 

We remind our readers that the police officer who shot and killed Sylville Smith is black but despite that, rioters shouted in the streets "black power" and "burn down whitey".

In yet another shocking video to emerge from the Milwaukee riots, local police were the target of intense verbal abuse and physical threats by angry African Americans.

 

At the 35 second mark in the video below, a Black Lives Matter supporter can be heard telling law enforcement “we are done with that justice for peace shit, we want blood.”

 

A few seconds later, the same man told police officer that “we cannot cohabitate with white people anymore, one of us has to go, black or white!.”

In a blog post by NPR public editor Elizabeth Jensen, she said that although the decision is “sure to upset a loyal core of its audience,” the company would now prefer to “let social media pick up the slack.”

Scott Montgomery, the managing editor for NPR digital news cited the reason for the move as the company’s need to engage more in social media, saying that NPR has “reached the point where we’ve realized that there are other, better ways to achieve the same kind of community discussion around the issues we raise in our journalism.”

 

However Jensen also admitted in the post that the company could not keep their comments sections as “civil” as that of the New York Times due to the fact that “they use heavy in-house human moderation that costs far more than NPR currently spends on its outsourced system,” whilst “only opening 10 percent of its articles to comments.”

 

NPR now joins a number of left-wing news organisations who have become fearful of users giving their opinions, joining sites such as The Guardian, The Verge, and The Daily Beast in telling users to take their opinions elsewhere.

 

The stated reason behind the majority of these decisions has been the need for the organisation to combat “abuse” and “harassment” on the site. The British newspaper The Guardian even chose to close comment sections under articles specifically relating to race, Islam, or immigration, citing them as topics that attract ““unacceptable levels of toxic commentary.”

President George W. Bush was torn to shreds in 2005 by mainstream media commentators for his initial response to Hurricane Katrina – yet President Obama’s detached response to the recent Louisiana floods has been met with resounding silence from those same outlets.

“George Bush doesn’t care about black people” was the shocking charge by singer Kanye West about President Bush’s response to Katrina. West’s was a particularly blunt assessment, but echoed a growing narrative pushed by mainstream media outlets that Bush’s response was out of touch, inept and most of all, he didn’t care about people on the ground.

 

Much of the media coverage at the time not only criticized Bush for the difficulties the federal government faced in responding to the disaster, but also lambasted him for taking too long to return from vacation and to visit the site on the ground.

 

When he did return early from vacation, just two days after the disaster hit, he faced further criticism for flying over New Orleans on his way back to Washington D.C. before flying out to visit the victims of the tragedy.

 

Mainstream media condemned Bush’s alleged lack of compassion, immediately predicting it would destroy his entire legacy. A USA Today article written at the time summarized it this way:

 

“President Bush has shown that he can be empathetic, sensitive and decisive. But those qualities eluded him for days after Hurricane Katrina, and the lapse could become a defining moment of his White House tenure,” the analysis said.

 

 

The Washington Post would later go on to brand Bush’s response the second worst moment of his entire presidency.

 

Such concerns have been almost entirely absent from media coverage of the Louisiana floods in recent days. At least 13 people have died, while at least 85,000 have registered for disaster aid.

 

While nowhere near as devastating as the hurricane, the floods have wrought significant destruction on the area. Meanwhile, Obama’s response has been significantly more tepid than Bush’s.

 

Obama has still not returned from his vacation at Martha’s Vineyard, and the White House said Thursday Obama would spend the day golfing. While a White House spokeswoman said the president also spoke with FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate to get an update after Fugate's visit to the area, there are currently no confirmed plans for Obama to end his vacation early.

 

A local paper has been one of the few voices to criticize Obama’s response, reflecting growing annoyance at his response on the ground. In particular, it took aim at Obama’s decision to attend a Hillary Clinton fundraiser Monday.

 

f the president can interrupt his vacation for a swanky fundraiser for fellow Democrat Hillary Clinton, as he did on Monday, then surely he can make time to show up for a catastrophe that’s displaced thousands,” the editorial in The Advocate said.

 

“The optics of Obama golfing while Louisiana residents languished in flood waters was striking. It evoked the precedent of the passive federal response to the state’s agony in 2005, a chapter of history no one should ever repeat,” the paper wrote.

 

So far, there have been no mainstream media outlets criticizing Obama’s apparent lack of response, nor have there been any celebrities claiming Obama doesn’t care about the people on the ground.

The State Department admitted Thursday it postponed a $400 million payment to Iran in January until a group of Americans held in the country was released -- but not all media outlets apparently saw it as a top story.

State Department spokesman John Kirby said Thursday that the negotiations to return the money – originally from a 1979 failed military equipment deal made between Iran and the U.S. – were conducted separately from negotiations to free the four prisoners.

 

However, Kirby also said that the U.S. withheld the cash delivery until Iran made good on its promise to release the prisoners on January 17.

 

The story was given prominence on most news sites and in newspapers. The New York Times, for example, put the story on its front page.

 

However, The Washington Post buried the story on page A-10, underneath a column about the National Park Service, according to NewsBusters. This was is in spite of one of the freed prisoners – Jason Rezaian – being a Washington Post reporter.

 

The ransom story also was buried in Friday’s edition of USA Today, Newsbusters reports, with the paper placing the story on the bottom of page 5A. Both the Post and USA Today slapped the DOJ’s decision to phase out privately operated prisons on their front pages.

Exclusive — Michele Bachmann on ‘Deranged’ Protesters Targeting Donald Trump’s Supporters, Motorcade: ‘Rent-A-Thugs’ Were ‘Looking for a Beat-Down’

The “deranged” progressive protesters who attacked GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump’s motorcade and targeted Trump supporters in Minneapolis on Friday night are being protected by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democratic nominee for president, former Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) told Breitbart News exclusively.

Bachmann, who ran for president herself in 2012 and was one of the top conservatives in the U.S. House of Representatives for years before her retirement after last Congress, is a Trump supporter and was at the Trump event in Minneapolis. Bachmann said the protesters were using profanity to verbally harass Trump supporters, spitting on them, and were so much a threat to the community that police officers advised people that they needed to leave through alternative exits.

Bachmann told Breitbart News via text message about the Friday night event:

 

The deranged left was on hand at the Trump event last night in Minneapolis looking for pre-planned, predictably choreographed trouble. They were swearing at attendees as we arrived, spitting at whomever they could reach. They weren’t protesting as much as they were looking to beat people up. After Donald Trump had our wildly enthusiastic crowd riled up and on our feet with multiple standing ovations, the crowd tried leaving the building. Police officers told us protesters had physically attacked people as they were leaving the building and we were instructed to leave through alternative exits.

 

It was so bad, she said, the so-called “protesters” were really in her view “rent-a-mobs” who turned into “rent-a-thugs.” She went on:

 

The ‘protestors’ morphed into rent-a-mobs, and then they became ‘rent-a-thugs’ looking for a beat-down. It was nothing more than Obama/Hillary’s lawlessness and disrespect for decency playing out on the streets of Minneapolis. The only idea the left seems to understand is physical violence used to intimidate political opposition. These brute thugs who attacked Donald Trump’s vehicle demonstrate exactly why we need to elect Donald Trump as our next President of the United States, so we can see respect for the rule of law return again in this country.

 

At one point, too, she saw protesters yelling profanities at police officers—and she said the experience was “frightening” to those ordinary Americans supporting Donald Trump for president.

 

“The media probably didn’t report it, but these protestor/thugs were running wild back and forth in a frenzy shouting, ‘F— the police! F— the police,’” Bachmann said. “For normal, happy Trump supporting people, it was frightening. Welcome to Hillary’s America. These are the people she protects and rewards.”

 

Hillary Clinton’s campaign has not responded to a request for comment on whether or not she disavows the actions of the violent protesters in Minneapolis on Friday night.

Hiding Hillary Day 259: #WheresHillary Trends #1 Worldwide

Trump Tweet #WheresHillary

It has now been 259 days since Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton held a press conference and the hashtag #WheresHillary is trending #1 worldwide on Twitter.

Hiding Hillary continues to dodge open questions in favor of heavily staged and controlled media interviews. Mired in a variety of scandals and with serious questions swirling about her health, the Clinton campaign is doing everything they can to hide Hillary from unscripted questions. Her opponent, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, regularly gives access to the press during open press conferences. While much of the old media enables Hillary’s deception, social media is clamoring for her to be vetted, which has led #WheresHillary to trend #1 worldwide.
